JP-009 Corn Husk Doll Historians are unsure how long First Americans have been making Corn Husk Dolls but what they are sure of is that among almost every indigenous tribe across North America that grew corn, corn husk dolls were found! Jude learned her craft from ladies in the Appalachian town of Berea, Kentucky, more than 30 years ago. Her dolls have gone all around the world as representative of this folk art craft. Among her best-loved dolls are the ones shown in these photographs; however, Jude is able to make one-of-kind dolls for special occasions. Please contact her through our Feedback page for availability, required time to make special order dolls, and prices. Price for regularly stocked Corn Husk Dolls: $15.00

JP-007 Lady’s Hatpin Used primarily for securing a lady’s straw hat to her hair on a windy day, there are stories of some ladies actually defending their virtue with these long steel pins. We don’t advocate that use but do respect those ladies of yore who were so self reliant. These hatpins are about eight inches long and each has a decorative glass bead affixed to it to give better holding ability in straw or cloth hats. Large (8-inches) = $5.00; Small (4-inches long) = $3.00 |

TA-013 Cabin Rag Doll These small dolls were many a young frontier girl’s only doll to play house with while growing up in a pioneer household. Fabric was simply too expensive and too dear to be used for making a big doll. Almost every scrap from sewing projects was put into another project and most of the remnants from those projects became quilt pieces. That left very few scraps too small to be used elsewhere and those that remained were made into cabin dolls. Jude’s dolls are carefully made examples of traditional cabin dolls. They are sure to bring a smile to a young girl’s face in the very same way they have been for hundreds of years! $3.00 |
